Cables Miguélez, a leading company in the manufacture of low voltage electrical cables in Spain, has the largest network of interconnected cable warehouses globally, thanks to its factory in León. Its logistics center in Villadangos and 15 proximity warehouses provide permanent service to three continents and currently manufactures about 400 million cables a year, with sales abroad that reach 70% of total turnover.
The company's plans are to consolidate current markets while exploring the possibility of organic growth in other markets that may arise. With an opaque system that didn’t allow the different companies to be interconnected, Grupo Miguélez sought to unify all the deployments in the different countries in a single tool that had control of the entire company.
The company had different challenges and opportunities ahead of it, before moving from having diverse ERP to a single management system with global coverage. On the one hand, it was an opaque system, the different societies were not interconnected, and the processes were duplicated. On the other hand, it needed to unify the different ERPs deployed in a single global and online platform. In addition, it needed to automate the processes that require manual work, reduce the times allocated to the realization of the different tasks, as well as have global visibility of the data so that it could flow from anywhere and from any device.
Why SAP and Seidor?
After evaluating three other solutions, Grupo Miguélez opted to implement the SAP HANA All-In-One solution by Seidor due to its extensive experience in implementing SAP tools in the sector. Likewise, the presence of SAP in the productive environment of most large companies made Miguélez opt for this system.
"SAP HANA is a tool that has fit into our sector, has given us greater visibility of the business, and has allowed us to detect anomalies that would not have been possible to see before. With this project, all the objectives have been met," says Sergio Redondo, Systems Director at Grupo Miguélez.
